PageMarkdown — Export any page to Markdown

[maximus]

Hello,

A small utility I built for my own workflow — export any page directly from the editor as a clean Markdown file. Useful for documentation, content migration, and feeding page content to AI tools.

GitHub: https://github.com/mxmsmnv/PageMarkdown

What it does:

• Adds an Export to Markdown button to the page edit form
• Smart HTML conversion — CKEditor content (tables, lists, headings, links, bold/italic) → standard Markdown
• Supports ProFields: Table, Combo, Repeater Matrix (with type labels and nested structure)
• Images and files render as Markdown image/link syntax
• Page references render as links or titles
• MapMarker, Email, URL, Color fields all handled
• Configurable: toggle field labels as headings, ignore lists per field/type, datetime format, empty HTML cleanup

Requirements: ProcessWire 3.0+, PHP 8.0+

CKEditor

Useful utility indeed, thanks for sharing!

Are you planning to add TinyMCE support as well? Given that CKEditor has been replaced by TinyMCE as the default RTE, on new sites I always use TinyMCE.

Very useful, indeed! May I suggest an example in its docs for the developer to implement:

- A URL segment `/md/` or, even better, adding `.md` to the URL to trigger the display of the markdown version of the page?

@szabesz TinyMCE support is on the list! CKEditor conversion was the first priority since it's still widely used, but TinyMCE is the logical next step given it's now the default RTE. I'll add it in an upcoming version.

@Sergio Great suggestion! A /md/ URL segment or .md extension that returns the Markdown version directly would make the module much more useful for static site generators, AI pipelines, and content migration workflows. Added to the roadmap.
